It took the Mexicans nearly two years to build it, definitely don't rush any repair.

Alternatively, get the bonnet wrapped.

FTFY for you. Which means there isn't any need to rush into a repair ;D


As for wraps, they're great on a plate, but terrible on a car. He might just as well look on Ebay for some NOS 'bullet hole' stickers.

Very nearly went this route because I have also heard good things about this product, but went for genuine BMW instead.

I think BMW paint is pretty thin for a car which 'crushes' the scales to the tune of 1700 KG. It's a fat bastard. :D
